Have tried to end Monday, but it keeps creeping into Tuesday. Have been up and down since 10 pm. Keep thinking there has to be a solution, but everything has been short lived so far. Will just have to stay in the moment, be accepting of the neuropathy until I find some sleep or don't. it is good that I don't have to like it in order to accept it.

My day started at 8:30, 10 am and at 2 pm.
Missed lunch and have been ringing my bell for a utensil and strawberry jam to eat my vanilla pudding. I also asked for my wheelchair given to me by physio. The nurse said it isn't in the room. It is hard on the back to sit on the edge of the bed. Even a regular chair would help. but don't have a visitors chair.
Acceptance is the key to recovery. I don't have to like it to accept it. Even little things can bother me, like drawing my drapes when I was changing and not opening them again.
Each day is what we make of the things that come our way. Some days I don't handle things too well, but do not let it ruin my whole day.
Living in the moment, one day at a time.

It doesn't matter what time you start your day, it is cold outside.
No snow considering the time of year though the snow is suppose to come after midnight.
Rain or shine, snow or sleet what ever the weather, we don't have to use. When we were using, we were willing to go to any lengths to obtain our drugs. How willing are we to obtain and maintain sobriety?

Got to sleep in until 9 am. Very grateful as pain woke me up at 1 a.m. and it has been a good day, so haven't the need to start it again.
Starting my day over meant crawling into my bed. We don't need to do this, we can pause during the day and say the Serenity prayer or any any other prayer, and ask our Higher Power for strength, courage, direction, awareness, perception, etc.

The sun is shining. The sun is shining. It seems like morning, but it is almost dinner time.
It is really cold outside and the temperature is suppose to drop to -15 Celsius.
A lazy Sunday even though we got more snow this morning, it is good to rest.

My day started early, and as a result, i was gifted with a shower.
They want me to keep my feet up, but dont like lying in bed. My fractured hip and leg are good, I have been bothered with my left hip and leg instead.
We have had lots and lots of snow. My body is breaking out in sore spots because of the weather, like my shoulder, neck, and right hand.
When you are new in recovery you become aware of spots you didnt know you had.
With me, it is old age.

Well I had good intentions, but they didn't get me very far. How often we were full of good intention, but ended up doing or falling short of our expectations. It didn't feel like I had slept, did a lot of tossing and turn, but I may have slept an hour or two. What we think we know, isnt always the truth or reality.
Hope you have a great day. Gym day for me. I don't have to go through snow. I hope my therapist has a safe journey.

It is hard to post when I am seeing double and my vision is blurred. It takes forever to edit.
I went to bed at 7 pm and woke up at 12:30 am. I got woken up for meds at 9 pm but went right back to sleeo which is unusual for me. I think it won't be long before i ztart my Saturday again.
